First off, you might want to study the acronym so you can spell it right on your CV, once you get it.

The MCSE doesn't have anything to do with 1st-level support. If you're looking for a 1st and 2nd level support certification, you should consider the MCDST. What other certifications do you have?

How much system admin experience do you have? If you've been working with Windows Server for a year in a multi-server environment, you're probably ready for the MCSA and MCSE.

That said, you don't need to take an expensive course. Just grab a few books and start studying.

If you have at least one year of experience implementing and administering network operating systems and desktop operating systems. This what Microsoft say, then go for the MCSE but if you havent then get some more experience before doing so.
